G-Shock with a compass?

Hi Folks,

I am looking for a G-Shock which has a built in compass. From there it seems you are playing off other features. I havent been able to find a website which allows you to filter on features so there is a lot of home work to do.
Ideally, I would like compass, tide times and solar.

There you go..., everything you need for £700. That was the exact g shock I saw last weekend that knocked me sideways with its £700 price tag. Got to say though that now I've read its spec I'm finding myself tempted. Funny business this watch game.

The ProTrek I mentioned is only £190. Why so mucjh cheaper than G-Shocks - are they just less 'tough'?

If it's good enough for Bear Grylls, it should be good enough for me. It's a better looking watch and I like the colour. Guessing the battery only means a year or two max, before it has to be replaced?
